Connect the Network Cable
Connect a network cable to the adapter, as shown in the following figure.
• For 1000BaseT (gigabit over copper), use Category 5 (must be 4-pair
wiring). Be sure to use Category 5 cable that complies with the
TIA-568 wiring specification. For more information on this
specification, refer to the Telecommunications Industry Association
Web site,
www.tiaonline.org
.
• For 100BaseTX, use Category 5 wiring or better.
Caution
If using less than 4-pair cabling, you must manually configure the adapter and
link partner speed and duplex setting. In addition, with 2- and 3-pair cabling, the adapter
can achieve speeds of up to only 100 MB/s.
• For 10BaseT, use Category 3 wiring or better.
• To use this adapter in a residential environment (at any speed), use
Category 5 wiring. If the cable runs between rooms or through walls
and/or ceilings, it should be plenum rated for fire safety.
• The cable length is limited to 100 m.
• The adapter must be connected to a compatible link partner, preferably
set to auto-negotiate speed and duplex.
• The PXI-8232 automatically accommodates either MDI or MDI-X
connections. You can use the auto-MDI-X feature to connect two
adapters directly without using a crossover cable.
